Not long to go now till the last major festival of the summer: the Leeds/Reading Festival
We’ve had the Isle of Wight Festival; we’ve had T in the Park, Download and Glastonbury. Now, it’s the turn of the legendary Leeds Festival in the north and the Reading Festival in the south, both held across the August Bank Holiday weekend.
The line up this year is strong as always, despite the lack of hard rock acts – see my previous post on the subject. For indie and alternative music fans, this event is eagerly anticipated.
On the Friday there’s the Arctic Monkeys and The Prodigy. Saturday’s line up sees the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s, Bloc Party and the mighty Radiohead. The festival closes with a bang on the Sunday with Kings of Leon following Placebo and the Kaiser Chiefs.
If you are going to it, let us know what you are most looking forward to seeing.

As for me this year, I have Pearl Jam in a few weeks, followed by Green Day in October.

If you heading out to festivals this summer you might be interested in a competition running at the moment to win a case of magners pear cider/mini-fridge full of magners. 1st round of winners will be chosen at random from the Magners twitter http://bit.ly/TwitMag and also from the Magners facebook fan page http://bit.ly/MagnersUK - to be in the running follow and join! 2nd round of winners will be chosen from those with the best banter demonstrated - so its good to get involved. Winners will be selected on Thursday - winners will be drawn every week (must be over 18 and UK based!)
